An investigation has now been launched by cops, with further engagement with those who reported it to be made.
Enquiries are currently ongoing.
Bad Pony Media UK Productions previously alerted the public after a post on Facebook warned locals about the distressing incident.
The post read: "With a lot of excitement around the filming of the new Spider-Man movie in the city centre, we wanted to share this post from our friends at No1seems2care to make people and families aware of an incident that happened on Tuesday afternoon with a young girl who was with her friends."
Filming kicked off in and around Bothwell Street at the beginning of the month as much of the city centre has been transformed to resemble New York City.
It was originally due to run until August 15 but the schedule has been extended until August 26, after moviemakers secured permission from Glasgow City Council.
Shooting for Spider-Man: Brand New Day, set to be released next summer, has generated excitement amongst locals and visitors, with thousands flocking to the city to catch a glimpse of Hollywood star Tom Holland in the iconic suit.
So far, sensational stunts have involved tanks, car chases with NYPD motors in pursuit and controlled explosions.
A Police Scotland spokesperson said: 'Officers are investigating reports of a man exposing himself in the Bothwell Street area of Glasgow on the afternoon of Tuesday, 5 August, 2025.
'Enquiries are ongoing.'

Shoppers fuming as greedy Vinted resellers snap up ‘cutest ever' viral Primark pyjamas to flog for DOUBLE the price
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) SHOPPERS hunting for the "cutest ever" Primark pyjamas have been left fuming at greedy Vinted resellers flogging them for DOUBLE the price. The adorable croissant boyfriend PJS have been sending fashion fans into a frenzy since they dropped in stores this month. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 4 Primark's latest pyjamas have become a viral hit 4 Shoppers are loving the cute croissant and blueberry pancake print 4 People have hit out at 'greedy' resellers flogging the PJs on Vinted 4 Some are selling the pyjamas for double the price The Printed Boyfriends Pyjamas, covered in a croissant and blueberry pancake print, are priced at £15 and available in sizes XXS to XXL. Describing them on the website, Primark bosses say: "Drift off in laid-back comfort with this printed boyfriend pyjama set, designed for those who love their sleepwear relaxed and playful. "Made in a soft pastel blue, this two-piece set includes a long-sleeved button-down top with a collar and matching straight-leg bottoms—both featuring an all-over cute, colourful print that brings a little fun to bedtime. "The shirt's relaxed fit gives that end-of day relaxed feel while the elasticated waistband on the trousers ensures a comfy, adjustable fit. "Whether you're lounging on lazy mornings or winding down at night, this set is all about cosy vibes with a cheeky twist." Shoppers have since hailed the pretty PJs as the "softest and comfiest" ever. "Got my hands on the viral primark breakfast pyjamas. They're literally the nicest softest pjs", gushed one person. But as with all viral products, the £15 sleepwear has proved difficult to get your hands on. Stores have sold out quickly and limited sizes are available on click and collect. So fans of the new pyjamas have been left fuming after spotting greedy resellers listing them for up to £30 on Vinted. Moment Primark worker yanks shopper's HAIR out amid screams of 'I'm going to kill you' in row over return One person fumed on TikTok: "Are you guys being f***ing serious? People are literally going to Primark, buying these pyjamas and then sticking them on Vinted. "And the worst part is that [the listings] have [lots of likes]. The people are actually so desperate for these pyjamas that they're favouriting them and potentially going to buy from people who are literally scamming them. "If you scroll [on Vinted] there's just endless listings. It's just greed. "You'll never catch me going into Primark and buying 50 pairs of pyjamas to resell on Vinted for double the price." Someone else cried: "People ruin everything. Just let us get a nice cheap pair of pjs!!!" "I want them SOOO badly but £30 on vinted is AWFULLL", chimed in a third. A fourth raged: "Sheer greed, if anyone pays it and postage their heads are gone lol." Meanwhile, a fifth wrote: "Sadly ppl have bought in bulk and reselling for £30 and so many couldn't buy them which is so sad." There is no rule against members selling viral items on Vinted for profit. However, the online marketplace has strict guidelines which state that commercial selling is only allowed for 'Pro sellers'. To sell using a Vinted Pro account, you need to be registered as a business. Sole traders, non-profit organisations, and companies are eligible to sign up for free. Vinted adds: "Otherwise, we may have to hide or remove listings and ban accounts if we detect commercial activity from standard Vinted members."
